This page contains the schedule template for the marketing project.

This schedule depends on Fedora General release schedule.

At every release, this schedule should be copied over to a page named Marketing $RELEASE schedule to work with.

Currently we are on the F11 cycle, the schedule can be found here Marketing F11 Schedule
